Luo Tokosra 10

1 Oasr tulik itngoul ke fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Ahab su muta in siti Samaria. Jehu el simusla leta se ac supwalik nu sin kais sie mwet leum lun siti uh, nu sin un mwet matu, ac nu sin mwet ma karingin fwilin tulig natul Ahab. Pa inge koanon leta sac:

Now Ahab had seventy descendants in Samaria. Jehu wrote letters and sent them to Samaria, to the rulers of Jezreel, including the elders and the guardians of Ahab's descendants, saying,

2 “Kowos pa mwet liyaung fwilin tulik natul tokosra, ke ma inge chariot, horse, mwe mweun, ac siti ma potyak, oan inpouwos. Ouinge, pacl se na ma kowos riti leta se inge,

“Your master's descendants are with you, and you also have chariots and horses and a fortified city and armor. So then, as soon as this letter comes to you,

3 kowos sulela mwet se ma fal emeet sin wen nukewa natul tokosra, ac kowos in akleumyal, na kowos in mweun in loangella.”

select the best and most deserving of your master's descendants and set him on his father's throne, and fight for your master's royal line.”

4 Mwet leum lun Samaria elos arulana sangeng. Elos fahk, “Kut ac lainul Jehu fuka, ke Tokosra Joram ac Tokosra Ahaziah tuh tia ku in lainul?”

But they were terrified and said among themselves, “See, the two kings could not stand before Jehu. So how can we stand?”

5 Ouinge mwet kol se su liyaung inkul sin tokosra, ac mwet kol se su liyaung siti uh, weang pac mwet matu, ac mwet karingin sou lal Ahab, elos supwala kas inge nu sel Jehu: “Kut mwet kulansap lom, ac kut akola in oru kutena ma kom fahk an. Tusruktu kut tia ku in srukak kutena mwet in tokosra. Oru na ma kom nunku mu ac wo sum an.”

Then the man who was in charge of the palace, and the man who was over the city, and the elders also, and they who raised the children, sent word back to Jehu, saying, “We are your servants. We will do everything that you command us. We will not make any man king. Do what is good in your eyes.”

6 Jehu el sifilpa simusla sie leta nu selos su fahk: “Kowos fin wiyu lac, ac akola in oru ma nga sapkin, kowos use sifen mwet nukewa in sou lal Tokosra Ahab nu yuruk in acn Jezreel ke pacl se pacna inge lutu.” Tulik itngoul ke fwilin tulik natul Tokosra Ahab elos muta yurin mwet matu Samaria, su tufahlosla.

Then Jehu wrote a letter the second time to them, saying, “If you are on my side, and if you will listen to my voice, you must take the heads of the men of your master's descendants, and come to me to Jezreel by tomorrow this time.” Now the king's descendants, seventy in number, were with the important men of the city, who were bringing them up.

7 Ke pacl se mwet matu inge eis leta lal Jehu, na elos twacla kwawen tulik itngoul in sou lal Ahab ah nufon, sang sifalos nu in fotoh, ac supwala nu sel Jehu in acn Jezreel!

So when the letter came to them, they took the king's sons and killed them, seventy persons, put their heads in baskets, and sent them to Jehu in Jezreel.

8 Ke fwackyang nu sel Jehu lah sifen tulik natul Ahab nukewa utuku, el sap elos in yolsani nu ke yol luo ke mutunpot nu in siti uh, ac filiya in oanna we nu ke lotu tok ah.

A messenger came to Jehu, saying, “They have brought the heads of the king's sons.” So he said, “Put them in two heaps at the entrance of the gate until the morning.”

9 In lotu tok ah, el som nu ke mutunpot sac, ac fahk nu sin mwet su muta we, “Nga pa mwet se ma orek tunyuna ac unilya Tokosra Joram. Wangin mwatuwos kac. A su uniya nufon mwet inge uh?

In the morning Jehu went out and stood, and said to all the people, “You are innocent. See, I plotted against my master and killed him, but who killed all these?

10 Ma inge akpwayei lah ma nukewa ma LEUM GOD El fahk mu ac sikyak nu sin fwilin tulik natul Ahab uh ac pwayena. LEUM GOD El oru oana ma El wulela kac in kas lal Elijah, mwet palu lal.”

Now you should certainly realize that no part of Yahweh's word, the word that he spoke concerning the family of Ahab, will fall to the ground, for Yahweh has done what he spoke about through his servant Elijah.”

11 Na Jehu el onela nufon mwet lula in sou lal Ahab su muta in Jezreel, ac leum nukewa lun mwet mweun, ac mwet kawuk na pwaye lal, ac mwet tol kewa — wangin sie selos tia anwuki.

So Jehu killed all who remained in the family of Ahab in Jezreel, and all his important men, his close friends, and his priests, until none of them remained.

12 Jehu el som liki acn Jezreel nu Samaria. Ke el sun acn se pangpang “Nien Aktuktuk lun Mwet Liyaung Sheep”

Then Jehu arose and left; he went to Samaria. As he was arriving at Beth Eked of the shepherd,

13 el sun kutu mwet in sou lal Tokosra Ahaziah lun Judah, ac siyuk selos, “Su kowos an?” Elos topuk, “Kut sou lal Ahaziah. Kut fahsr nu Jezreel in oru akfulat lasr nu sin tulik natul Kasra Jezebel ac nu sin oaleum saya.”

he met brothers of Ahaziah king of Judah. Jehu said to them, “Who are you?” They answered, “We are brothers of Ahaziah, and we are going down to greet the children of the king and the children of Queen Jezebel.”

14 Jehu el sap nu sin mwet lal, “Sapmoulelosi!” Elos sruokolosi ac el onelosla ke acn se apkuran nu ke luf se we. Elos mwet angngaul luo nufon, ac wangin sie selos moul.

Jehu said to his own men, “Take them alive.” So they took them alive and killed them at the well of Beth Eked, all forty-two men. He did not leave any of them alive.

15 Jehu el sifilpa mukuiyak in som inkanek lal, na el sonol Jonadab, wen natul Rechab, su fahsr in osun nu sel. Jehu el paingul ac fahk, “Nunak luk kom uh oana sie. Kom lungse wiyu kasreyu?” Jonadab el topuk, “Nga lungse.” Ac Jehu el fahk, “Fin pwaye, kom se poum.” Eltal asruokpola, na Jehu el kasrelak nu fin chariot natul ah,

When Jehu had left there, he met Jehonadab son of Recab coming to meet him. Jehu greeted him and said to him, “Is your heart with me, as my heart is with yours?” Jehonadab answered, “It is.” Jehu said, “If it is, give me your hand.” So he gave Jehu his hand, and Jehu took Jehonadab up with him into the chariot.

16 ac fahk, “Fahsru wiyu, ac sifacna liye lupan inse pwaye luk nu sin LEUM GOD.” Ac eltal tukeni kasrusr nwe Samaria.

Jehu said, “Come with me and see my zeal for Yahweh.” So he had Jonadab ride along with him in his chariot.

17 Ke eltal sun acn we, Jehu el uniya nufon sou lal Ahab, ac tia likiya siefanna. Pa inge ma LEUM GOD El tuh fahk nu sel Elijah mu ac sikyak.

When he came to Samaria, Jehu killed all who remained from Ahab's descendants in Samaria, until he had destroyed Ahab's royal line, just as was told them before by the word of Yahweh, which he had spoken to Elijah.

18 Jehu el pangoneni mwet Samaria ac fahk nu selos, “Tokosra Ahab el tuh kulansupu god Baal kutu srisrik, a nga ac kulansupal arulana yohk lukel.

Then Jehu gathered all the people together and said to them, “Ahab served Baal a little, but Jehu will serve him much.

19 Pangoneni mwet palu lal Baal nukewa, mwet alu nu sel nukewa, ac mwet tol lal nukewa. Ac fah wangin mwet tia wi tukeni se inge. Nga ac oru sie kisa na yohk nu sel Baal, ac mwet se fin tia tuku, ac fah anwuki.” (Ma se inge kikiap se lal Jehu, mweyen el oru elan uniya mwet nukewa ma alu nu sel Baal.)

Now therefore call to me all the prophets of Baal, all his worshipers, and all his priests. Let no one be left out, for I have a great sacrifice to offer to Baal. Whoever does not come will not live.” But Jehu did this deceitfully, with the intent to kill the worshipers of Baal.

20 Na Jehu el sapkin ac fahk, “Oakiya ac sulkakinelik sie len in alu in akfulatyal Baal!” Oakwuk sac orekla ac solyak,

Jehu said, “Set a time to have an assembly for Baal.” So they announced it.

21 ac Jehu el supwalik kas nu in acn nukewa Israel. Mwet nukewa su alu nu sel Baal elos tuku, ac wangin sie selos tia tuku. Elos nukewa utyak nu in tempul lal Baal, ac nwakla in lohm sac nufon.

Then Jehu sent throughout all Israel and all the worshipers of Baal came, so that there was not a man left who did not come. They came into the temple of Baal, and it was filled from one end to another.

22 Na Jehu el sap mwet tol se ma liyaung nuknuk mutal, elan use nuknuk uh sang nu sin mwet ac alu uh.

Jehu said to the man who kept the priest's wardrobe, “Bring out robes for all the worshipers of Baal.” So the man brought out robes to them.

23 Tukun ma inge Jehu ac Jonadab wen natul Rechab, eltal som nu in tempul sac, ac Jehu el fahk nu sin mwet su muta we, “Liyaung na tuh in mwet na ma alu nu sin Baal mukena pa utyak, ac wangin mwet alu nu sin LEUM GOD in wi utyak.”

So Jehu went with Jehonadab son of Recab into the house of Baal, and he said to the worshipers of Baal, “Search and make sure that there is no one here with you from the servants of Yahweh, but the worshipers of Baal alone.”

24 Ouinge Jehu ac Jonadab utyak in kisakin mwe kisa ac mwe kisa firir nu sel Baal. Jehu el tuh oakiya mwet oalngoul likinuma ac fahk nu selos, “Onela nufon mwet inge! Mwet se fin fuhlela sie sin mwet inge in kaingla ac tia anwuki, na ac fah anwuki el!”

Then they went in to offer sacrifices and burnt offerings. Now Jehu had chosen eighty men who were standing outside, and he told them, “If any of the men whom I bring into your hands escapes, whoever lets that man escape, his life will be taken for the life of the one who escaped.”

25 Tukunna Jehu el orala kisa inge, na el sap nu sin mwet mweun ac mwet kol lalos, “Tal utyak ac onela nufon mwet inge! Nimet lela siefanna in kaingla!” Elos faisak cutlass natulos, utyak ac onelosla nufon, ac amakunla manolos nu likinuma. Na elos sifil utyak nu infukil se oan oe luin tempul sac,

So then as soon as Jehu finished offering the burnt offering, he said to the guard and to the captains, “Go in and kill them. Let no one come out.” So they killed them with the edge of the sword, and the guard and the captains threw them out and went into the inner room of the house of Baal.

26 ac usya sru oal soko ma oan we ac esukak.

They dragged out the stone pillars that were in the house of Baal, and they burned them.

27 Na elos kunausla sru oal soko, ac tempul sac, ac ekulla tempul sac nu ke lohm fahsr se, su oanna nwe misenge.

Then they broke down the pillar of Baal, and destroyed the house of Baal and made it a latrine, which it is to this day.

28 Pa inge ma Jehu el oru in kunausla alu nu sel Baal in acn Israel nufon.

That is how Jehu destroyed Baal worship from Israel.

29 Tusruktu el etai ma koluk lal Tokosra Jeroboam, su tuh kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk ke elos alu nu ke ma sruloala gold in luman cow mukul srisrik, su el oakiya in acn Bethel ac Dan.

But Jehu did not leave the sins of Jeroboam son of Nebat, by which he made Israel sin—that is, the worship of the golden calves in Bethel and Dan.

30 LEUM GOD El fahk nu sel Jehu, “Ma nukewa ma nga lungse kom in oru nu sin fwilin tulik natul Ahab, kom orala nufon. Ouinge nga wulela nu sum lah wen nutum ac fah tokosra lun Israel nwe ke fwil se akakosr.”

So Yahweh said to Jehu, “Because you have done well in executing what was right in my eyes, and have done to the house of Ahab according to all that was in my heart, your descendants will sit on the throne of Israel to the fourth generation.”

31 Tusruktu Jehu el tia akos ma sap lun LEUM GOD lun Israel ke insial nufon, a el fahsrna tukun srikasrak koluk lal Jeroboam, su kolla mwet Israel in oru ma koluk.

But Jehu took no care to walk in the law of Yahweh, the God of Israel, with all his heart. He did not turn away from the sins of Jeroboam, by which he made Israel sin.

32 In pacl sac LEUM GOD El mutawauk in aksrikyela lupan acn lun Israel. Tokosra Hazael lun Syria el sruokya acn nukewa lun Israel

In those days Yahweh began to cut off regions from Israel, and Hazael defeated the Israelites at the borders of Israel,

33 ma oan kutulap in Infacl Jordan, fahla nu layen eir nwe ke siti srisrik Aroer ke Infacl Arnon — acn inge weang pac acn lun Gilead ac Bashan, yen ma sruf lal Gad, Reuben, ac Manasseh Kutulap muta we.

from the Jordan eastward, all the land of Gilead, the Gadites, and the Reubenites, and the Manassites, from Aroer, which is by the Valley of the Arnon, through Gilead to Bashan.

34 Ma nukewa saya ma Jehu el orala, weang pac orekma pulaik lal, simla oasr in [Sramsram Matu Ke Tokosra Lun Israel.]

As for the other matters concerning Jehu, and all that he did, and all his power, are they not written in the book of the events of the kings of Israel?

35 El misa ac pukpuki in Samaria, ac Jehoahaz wen natul, el aolul in tokosra.

Jehu slept with his ancestors, and they buried him in Samaria. Then Jehoahaz his son became king in his place.

36 Jehu el tokosra lun Israel, ac leum in Samaria ke yac longoul oalkosr.

The time that Jehu reigned over Israel in Samaria was twenty-eight years.
